which has not done anything here even to a single instance of L1A8E

The use of the % sign doesn't seem to be mentioned in the :help I have been able 
to get to.

When I figure out what a piece of code is doing, I would like to be able to 
globally replace the L1A8E label it now carries as an entry point,  as found 
and labeled by our disassembler, with something more in line with what the 
routine actually does, like "s/L1A8E/printerr/g" which with another editor I 
use on that machine will globally replace every instance of L1A8E with 
printerr.

So code would look like this:
	lbsr 	printerr
...
printerr	lda #path
		  etc etc

This is all assembly language for a 6x09 cpu, not that it makes any diff here.

Thanks Cameron.
